I had the pleasure of hunting with Todd Parker and Larry Atkins recently in the Arizona desert. While Larry and I were sitting on a hill taking a water break with Brix, Larry's phone rang with a very excited Todd on the other end. We could see him down below us, so we quickly rushed over to see what he had found. We saw a beautiful chondrite in situ. Todd was recording his find and preparing to take a photograph when Brix ran up and gave the meteorite a sniff and a lick. Todd was the first one to see the meteorite and Brix was the first (and only) one to lick it! : ) It is a 30-40 gram chondrite with fusion crust and visible metal flakes on on the broken end. It looks like Lawrence may have another meteorite to classify from Arizona. Congratulations Todd!
